STANDARD, LOW FRICTION AND EXTENDED BALL JOINTS
AFCO offers a complete selection of standard, low friction and extended ball joints. Stock appearing low friction ball joints have only 2 lbs. of resistance (stock
ball joints have as much as 50 lbs.) to reduce rigidity, freeing up the shocks and springs for improved wheel control. Extended length ball joints dramatically im-
prove both the camber curve and roll center location, resulting in enhanced high speed handling and turning characteristics. Standard ball joints are also available.
